I prioritize VO projects emphasizing social, economic, gender, racial, and environmental justice; health equity; science literacy; and the vegan movement. (I also have a very dark sense of humor that I enjoy letting out for a run every now and then…)

I strive for full transparency, communication, and collaboration to produce work you are proud of and had a blast making with me!

My deep voice and breadth of both scholarly and acting training make me well-suited to:

  • long-form narration (audiobooks, documentaries)

  • characters (realistic, fantastical, wry)
